My very first contest has come to an end and now it is time to announce the winners.

All Good Things Come To An End

My first contest was all about learning new things on SteemIt and was heavily supported by #superbowlweekne & #newbieresteemday. (Hive account@davemccoy, this wouldn't have been possible without you, thanks again. I owe you one ... or many more)

The original post can be found here:

Contestants had to answer 3 questions:

1 - What did you learn about SteemIt today?

2 - Why did you think that was important to learn?

3 - What was your approach? What did you do to learn this?

Learning new things on SteemIt isn't only important for all the new Steemians out there, but for all of us. By learning something new every day, you can keep improving your skills and stay ahead of the game.

So, even now the contest has come to an end, keep on learning!

Learning new things every day is the key to success

I'm already planning another contest like this, but first I've got to take a little break. Next week you can find me on a snowboard somewhere in the French Alpes.

Announcing The Winners

How the winners would be chosen was stated in the original post: after filtering out all invalid comments, 2 winners would be randomly chosen by using the Steem Comment Picker.
Each winner would receive 1/2 of the SBD that is paid out to me at the end of the week.

So, let's see how much was paid out to me:

My cut was 9.40 SBD, so each winner will receive 4.70 SBD.

To decide which of the many contestants would win the contest, I entered my post URL into the form field at Steem Comment Picker and clicked 'Pick Random Winner'.

These two comments were selected:
